“A Women & Men’s Circle with Gong Bath is an opportunity to pause, connect with your body, feelings and creative thoughts. Receive inspiration, clarity, nourishment, relaxation and a greater sense of belonging.

  • What happens in a Women & Men's Circle?

    You gather as a community in a circle, where the intention is to offer a more intimate experience, where you get to connect deeper within yourself and the other participants.

    Everyone gets a chance to be heard and seen through personal group shares.

    Anyone with ceremonial cacao will drink this as a way of connecting deeper with their heart and each other.

    Meeting in this way can be transformative. Laying down to receive the reiki infused gong bath may help you process feelings, thoughts and bring you deeper into relaxation, helping you regulate your nervous system.

    The session will finish with more rest, journaling and a group share to connect the group before leaving.

    No previous experience is needed.

"I loved today Maria thank you so much. So weird from the second you started using the gongs I had images of my childhood that were so clear and in so much detail it was unreal! I could even see the fence at the back of our house that had pieces missing in it that I would never have remembered in a million years! I also had really bright colours coming in and out of view (with eyes closed), purple and yellow mainly. I have had these before when having reflexology and shiatsu too. Lovely and I cannot wait for the next one!" - Lisa
